The house is full of windows and has a porch in the front for nice people/neighborhood-watching. It sits on the top of a hill off the main road, so walks to town are super quick, nicely paved, and are frequented by many fellow town residents, dog walkers, bikers, etc. This Studio is attached to our family home, but completely private with private entrance. And we are a very welcoming family. You can have as much/little privacy as you'd like...if you need anything, just text us or knock on the main house door. Otherwise, we respect your privacy. On occasion, a family member may use the front porch, but if there is ever an issue with this, please do not hesitate to let me know! You will have keys to the Studio (left for you by host prior to arrival). If you are coming by car, you can also park in the driveway. There is a free space on the rocks near the grey shed - we just ask that you park as close to the grey shed as possible so as not to block the driveway from other vehicles coming in and out of the garage. As little or much as you want! Our family has lived here for 30 years and if you'd like some more ideas on what you can do, feel free to ask! Most family members have since moved out of the main house, but as 4 sisters, we visit a lot. We are all friendly and will do our best to make sure you are comfortable and that you enjoy your stay. We are located just 5-10m walking distance to EVERYTHING! ... Pace University is down the block! There's family coffee shops, bakeries, film center, Starbucks, biking, restaurants, bars, fully side-walked town, entertainment, renowned ping pong parlor by NY Times crossword puzzle maker, and of course NYC (45min train). Such a great place for a getaway from NYC or other places! Pleasantville attracts people from all over Westchester and outside areas for several reasons. It is home to the famous Jacob Burns Film Center which shows plenty of independent films. Since we are located near Pace University so if you are visiting the school this house is perfect.
